I was going to say Sivad as well. He scared the crap out of my sister and me when we were growing up in Memphis. I think that show aired on WHBQ.

Y'all remember the Tennessee Trash commercial about littering. It was a classic.

we had Dr. Shock and Shock Theater on Friday nights....I was at my girlfriends house when I first saw Rosemary's Baby. My gf lived waaaaay out in the boonies, it was about 8 miles of dirt road before seeing any pavement. NOTHING but pastures and creepy trees outlined against a FULL MOON.....I told myself "I'm hauling ass out of here and God have mercy on anything/one that I meet". I nearly sideswiped a huge oak going around a curve on that dirt road, the good news is I survived.

If you bought your groceries at Red Food, if you bought your clothes at The Leader, if you remember when Dollywood was called Silver Dollar City, if you?ve ever thought about accelerating to 100+ and trying out the runaway truck ramps while going down Monteagle, you might be from Tennessee.

If you lived close to Bristol you will remember the Bill Gatton Chevrolet commercials. He was a UK grad though. He was instrumental in getting Derrick Hord to go to UK. Not a coincidence they also hired my Tennessee High coach at Kentucky. This was 1979. But they never cheated..lol.

When I first moved to East Tennessee in 1982, there were billboards everywhere in S Knox County that said "Water is for washing, Dickel is for drinking" and it showed a country gent sitting in an old school washtub drinking Dickel from the bottle.  That sure did seem appropriate for S Knox County somehow!
